As of today, Monday 5 October, patients registered with several local practices, including Midlock Medical Centre, The Crescent Medical Practice, Drs Chita & Hayes, Drs Shields, Dale & Blackwood, Dr McKeeve, and Dr Alam’s Surgery, can utilise the service. These practices are situated close to the clinic and serve communities facing significant deprivation levels in Scotland.
The Cardonald GP Walk-In Clinic offers same-day assessments for urgent, non-life-threatening conditions requiring immediate treatment. This initiative aims to expedite patient access to necessary care while alleviating pressure on other healthcare services.
This expansion is part of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde’s (NHSGGC) ongoing commitment to enhancing care accessibility and addressing health inequalities.
“"We’re delighted to expand access to the service for a further 26,000 patients. The Cardonald GP Walk-In Clinic is providing patients with another route to access urgent primary care in their local community. This expansion will help ensure more people can benefit from clinical assessment at the walk-in Clinic."
“"By extending access to patients’ resident in this area we can continue to improve accessibility, reduce travel barriers and continue to develop a model of care that responds to the needs of local communities."
Patients registered with the newly added practices will receive direct information from their GP surgery. Further details regarding the GP Walk-In Clinic, including eligibility criteria, are available on the NHSGGC website.
